LG-Ericsson USA announced the availability of the latest in its line of business communications solutions to support small to medium-size business voice, video and data communications management needs, the iPECS-MG Business-Enabled Communications System. Available through LG-Ericsson's certified resellers, the iPECS-MG system, a software tool that facilitates centralized configuration and monitoring of all connected devices, both on-premises and remote, offers the functionality of a traditional PBX with the addition of features such as Unified Communications (UC) for conferencing--voice and video--data collaboration, remote and roaming user support and scalability.

As a standalone solution, the iPECS-MG can be combined with a range of LG-Ericsson voice and data products and accessories to create a converged business communications system. Its telephony features and value-added applications, in addition to support for a range of fixed or mobile LG-Ericsson handsets (IP or digital), conference phones and soft clients enable configurations centered on the iPECS-MG Business-Enabled Communications System to meet the needs of a variety of businesses.

For data communications, LG-Ericsson's portfolio of data communications networking products include a list of certified and proven Ethernet switches for high-speed data transfer, secure Internet access, VOIP Quality of Service (QoS) and Power over Ethernet (PoE).
